Firsts

We all have our firsts... first step, first love, first kiss. Well, this is my first blog post. Bear with me everyone.

It's always intense when your thoughts and feelings are posted where everyone can see them. Facebook (in my belief) has so dulled this. Due to Facebook and Twitter we lose sight of just how private our thoughts actually are. We think "Well I can vent on Facebook." NO. We just tolerate you venting on Facebook. Chances are, we've already blocked you from our newsfeed anyway. And if you're like me - you don't have a Twitter account because seeing what everyone has to say - "well quite frankly, my dear, I just don't give a damn." If people really wanted to know what was going on in your life, don't you think they'd pick up a phone? I mean all we do these days is text anyway... Now, don't go getting me wrong here. I have a Facebook that I update and an iPhone that i text on. I'm not against technology. I'm against the un-personalization that technology has allowed. At least on Apple products you can see someone's face again  and not have to creep on FB to do so.

Funny thing is, I never started this blog to smash the social networking sites we use today... But I have my thoughts and feelings... and rants. And if social networking gets me on a rant, I might as well blog about it. Besides, I can't say I fully knew what to blog about anyway. I'm new at this, remember?
